Key points:

• Boral is developing lower carbon concrete products, using alternatives to cement
• Industry-led Green Star ratings consider everything from building materials to energy efficiency to air quality
• Changes to the National Construction Code will be implemented next year, but an energy efficiency rating for existing homes is voluntary

Jason York says his phone has been ringing off the hook for 18 months with people wanting quotes for insulating their homes.

“It’s getting to the point where I’m having a lot of trouble getting stock in. Keeping up with demand has been a huge issue,” he says.

The World’s THINNEST Solar Collectors

…and that was way back in 2016…

I’d long been thinking about why “they” never considered
SHEATHING ENTIRE HOUSES Roofs & Walls in building
materials which incorporate this technology rather than today’s
Standard HEAVY Expensive (F’n UGLY!) Framed Glass Panels.

…so I took all of 1minute to Google-up…

but no seriously apparently burning that dirty stuff is the best source of power

but using renewables to manufacture “that dirty stuff” suddenly makes it impossible or useless or dangerous or unviable or politically unfavourable oh yes

Look at your electricity bill.
